HOLD FAST THE SUMMER (CORINNE)
It is the beauty of the day and all it contains -
The laughter and the work and finally the sleep.
The Quiet.
Oh, September, do not put your weight upon my
mind
For I know she will be going.
This girl of mine who is now a woman - she must
go.
Time will lace my thoughts with joyous years.
The walls will echo her “Hello”.
Her caring will be around each corner.
Her tears will be tucked into our memory book.
Life calls her beyond our reach - to different
walls,
New faces shiny halls, many places.
Greater learning - she must go.
But wait, before she leaves,
Be sure she knows you love her.
Hide the lump in your throat as you hug her.
She will be home again - but she will be different.
The little girl will have disappeared.
How I wish I could take September and shake it,
FOR IT CAME TOO SOON**
I must look to the beauty of each new day
And silently give thanks
That I HAD her for awhile!
